Each piece of equipment required roughly 2-3 synths total to make, at 200-300 exp per synth. It didn't take very long either, maybe under an hour.



I'd hang on to anything except parts (like tabard fronts and cotton sleeves, etc). You have that extra 300 units of space to use, and the old synths still work. whatever equipment you make is just more exp/gold for you, even though I doubt dated equipment will sell for much. Still useable for materia though.

Besides, the exp you gain while crafting these things can go towards the spiritbond on your equipment.
Worth noting that you can also NPC things for quite a bit so even if you make dated crap you can make some solid gil there.

Unless they dropped the buying price for that stuff. Don't remember seeing that in the patch notes but I only just considered it so I have no idea.
